Chasing Quiet

We live in a busy, chaotic world.

It’s loud and demanding.

We feel the weight of demands and pressure pushing on us each day. Bits of it may feel manageable, but large parts of it feel unavoidable. We face a marathon of endless meals, unmatched socks, and relentless emails.

Most of us have probably been encouraged to have daily Quiet Time –yet it’s easier said than done, right? Even if we manage the physical act of sitting down and putting in the time, it’s still a challenge to be fully engaged. Those to-do lists in our heads pop up quickly. Our inner distractions can be almost as much of a barrier as our external ones.

We’re constantly dancing around obstacles thrown in our paths that interfere with maintaining our focus on God’s Will for us each day.
